Stephanie is a Program Manager for Developer Experiences on Microsoft Edge who comes from a background in web and user interface design as well as front-end development. She's worked on developer tooling in the browser as well as the open source project, webhint.io and is currently leading the Web We Want initiative, a cross browser and cross-company initiative to identify developer needs and bring those changes to the web platform. When not on the web, she can be found mountain biking in the forests of the Pacific Northwest or the Arizona desert and is usually always plotting her next visit to Scotland.

Design & Development Considerations for Dual Screen Devices
Dual-screen/foldable devices have emerged on the market, offering new and interesting opportunities as well as challenges for web designers and web and app developers.
Web developers targeting foldable devices want to be able to effectively layout content in a window that spans multiple displays but the web platform currently doesn't offer the native primitives needed for building these layouts. However, there are proposals being set forth for the web platform to provide these primitives alongside existing API proposals to help build these elevated experiences.
In this talk, I'll discuss:
• The current problem areas that web developers are concerned about with dual and folding screen devices
• New CSS & JavaScript APIs the Microsoft Edge team built for web layout on dual screen devices
• Possible scenarios that leverage dual-screen devices for an elevated and progressively enhanced user experience when it comes to a web site or progressive web app
• How building for dual screen and foldable devices are the next step in the evolution of web layout
And I'll demo a few dual-screen enhanced experiences as well to get you inspired for the next evolution of designing for the web!
Enhancements for More Seamless PWA Experiences on Desktop
Progressive Web App technologies provide developers an opportunity to build cross-platform web applications using one codebase with modern web technologies. Because of these web technologies, PWAs can behave like native applications without the headache of having to write multiple codebases to ship the same app across platforms.
PWA APIs have come a long way since the introduction of things like Service Worker and Push notifications. In this talk, I'll go over the new APIs, such as Windows Control Overlay and PWAs as URL Handlers, that are currently in development in standards groups or that are being shipped in browsers that continue to provide deeper functionality and integration with operating systems for an even richer, native-like experience with web technologies.
